Where Worlds begin

Squar One Studio designed a massive animated display for the entryway of the Austronesian Hall at the National Museum of Prehistory, Taiwan. Done as a long take that scrolls sideways, the piece reflects both the path taken by visitors in the hall and the migration of Austronesian peoples over the millennia. A conglomeration of the unique styles of several accomplished illustrators, it serves as a symbol of the richness and depth of the Austronesian cultures as a seamlessly woven tapestry of several magnificent Austronesian legends, including Tao People, Paiwan People, Pinuyumayan People, Iban People of Malaysia, Pangcah People and Kiribatis.
